I wouldn't have thought of visiting the federal reserve bank but it was my son wanted to. It's a federal bank so you have to go through a TSA type screening to get in but then once you do; you are treated to a very,...More

We were in Philadelphia for 5 days, and while walking around downtown on Saturday, we saw the Federal Reserve Bank, with a sign to come in and see the Money in Motion exhibit. It was free, so I joked that maybe they'll give us free...More

A short, self-guided exhibit. But informative and free (and out of the heat, and they have bathrooms!) Nice look at the different currency and coinage from days gone by. Machine to get a commemorative state quarter was not working. Obviously there's security and metal detectors...More

Almost as soon as you walk in, the staff gives you a bag of about $100 worth of shredded bills. Makes a great gift and souvenir. My kids really enjoyed (and so did adults) some of these exhibits on money. Like simulating bank payments (how...More

Good information and story of how the fed functions and it purpose. You can get a fresh quarter there (uncirculated condition intended for circulation) out of the machine. Free and worth going. Wish they had more unique things to buy.
